SEVEN VS. YALE IN ARENA

The University hockey team will meet Yale for the first clash of the series in the Arena this evening at 8.15 o'clock. Judging from statistics Harvard has a distinct advantage. Princeton has defeated Yale twice--5 to 3 and 3 to 1. Dartmouth, also, proved its supremacy over Yale in a 2 to 1 game, the same score with Which Harvard defeated Dartmouth. Although the University team has won in these cases and Yale has gone down to defeat, the scores have been small, and it is probable that the contest this evening will be close.

Yale Has Prep. School Stars

The Yale seven this year is largely composed of former St. Paul's and Hotchkiss School stars, giving the team the advantage of a knowledge of each other's play. Sweeney, at rover, is perhaps the most dangerous individual player, often getting away in quick dashes. The position of goal has been a disputed one all season. Driscoll was regular for the first part of the season, but was replaced in the second Princeton and the Dartmouth game by Schilier.

Harvard presents on her side a seven essentially consistent, team-play being the dominant feature. The great weakness of the team up to this time has been inaccurate shooting. Time after time in the Princeton game the team failed lto score through inability to get off quick shots. This game weakness was obvious in the McGill game. The light work yesterday was devoted to practising these quick shots, and the team has shown remarkable improvement.
